Total Lunar Eclipse of My Heart

For those of you who didn't get the chance to see the Lunar Eclipse, you missed out. It was really a neat experience, and it was really late at night/early in the morning. We took some great pictures of the event. We asked NASA if they wanted our pictures for their records, yep that good. CNN and MSN bought the copies from us as well. We hope you enjoy them.

First of all, I found it pertinent to our situation to leave the flash on and take a picture of our tree branches.
Then I took the following AMAZING picture of the Lunar Eclipse. Again, NASA accepted these for their files.
And another one a few minutes later. If you toggle back and forth, you can see slight differences.
I also captured a picture of a rare Melanie bug coming out of her cocoon.
I had the bug take a picture of me holding my hands properly in my lap.
I kinda like this bug.
Needless to say, it is not a bug, but Mel, and she was super excited to see the eclipse.
